I respond to the July 14 letter "Resilient Ohioans bounce back quickly after storms" from Tim Bubb, Licking County commissioner. He spoke mostly about how the people in his county pulled together to help one another. He also said, "Licking County residents would do well to take a moment and thank a higher power for allowing the county to survive this disaster without any storm-related loss of life."

Does he not remember the names of Larry Pierce, Shirley Amos and Margaret Studer ("Power expected today for last few," Dispatch article, July 10)?

He should apologize to the families of these three who clearly died from storm-related situations.
